3kgtslflip - You asked about updates, I think the @homemedia guys are working on some stuff, not sure when the next release will be though.

I've found you can disable the switching to the visuals screen by editing the music-InterfaceDescriptor.xml file and comment out or remove the following line
I would comment it out as the line actually suggests that the code will be changed so that the visuals screen can be disabled by changing some setting somewhere.
<Expression name="music.fullscreen">meta.empty("settings.theme .music-fullscreen") or meta("settings.theme.music-fullscreen")</Expression>
This disables the switching to the visuals screen, the visual will still show but it will be overlayed ontop of the background image.
I've been playing with the "Ice" theme and I've made some minor changes to it to suit my needs.
One was the above - disabling of the visuals screen.
Another change I did was to get rid of the grey background to the play controls, so now I see more of my background image and the buttons simply sit ontop of the background.
I've made the song list menu and it's slider more transparent, again this brings out the background even more, oh and course I;ve changed the background.
I'm not going to have time in the next few weeks but I will get back to this and make some further changes.
Ultimately I want to come up with my own theme :-)
I'll post a screen shot of my changed theme when I get a chance.
